(Almost) All Things Manny Machado....

[El Gordo]

I really don't think he's peaked with the bat yet. His eye has been improving and he's driving the ball harder this year.

It's possible this is as good as he'll ever be with the glove, though.

Brooks had his best years with the glove at around 30. Positioning and experience has a lot to do with it.

Manny getting some Deadspin love today. Last night's HR was his hardest hit ball of the season at 112 MPH.

I'm too young to have seen Brooks play, but that's interesting. Manny has some freakish athleticism, hopefully that holds into his 30s.

Brooks and Cal both were firm believers in positioning, and was amazing watching either of them play.

Eh, yeah. I hope w the best of 'em.

Well, good Buck. I have to say, though, the kid knows how to pitch with a lead, eh?

So you think he looked a bit better with the extra day?

:oAnd now, we join the GT in it's regularly scheduled venue....

I love watching Manny, he's maybe the most spectacular talent I've ever seen in an O's uniform. Whenever I watch him though, I cant help thinking that someday we'll be looking back and see him when he was young and in an O's uniform and it will be like seeing A Rod in a Rangers uniform.

Wouldn't the apt comparison be a Mariners uni?

I was surprised it got out, I thought he got under it.

Terrible decision by Manny just now to throw home instead of getting the easy out.
